Brendan Rodgers likened James Maddison's quality to that of Kevin De Bruyne following Leicester's 2-0 win at Fulham.
Leicester took the lead in the 17th minute with a well-crafted move from Maddison as the England international became a focal point for his side's attacking threat during the first half.
The 24-year-old sent a well-timed cross into the box which was headed past Alphonse Areola by Kelechi Iheanacho, before turning provider for James Justin to round the keeper and tap home to finish a another fine move.
In the absence of striker Jamie Vardy, the Foxes had earned just one point from matches against Everton and Leeds, but they bounced back at Craven Cottage, with Maddison a key part of their dominance.
